Nope, even more subtle than that. I dismantled the lockout mechanism, pulled the spring. Took it down little by little, til I could easily muscle it, but it doesn't trip on a 4-5 or 6-5 shift. Takes a bit of muscle but once you figure it out, its easy.

I still gotta get a reverse switch pigtail, and figure out what the hell I'm doing about the speedo. I have the option thanks to Alloy at TGO of running either cable or VSS converter box. What I thought would be a simple swap of the speedo turned into an "Ah ****... now what do I do" moment.

The interior will likely still be a mess, and I'll probably still be using the tach as a speedo, but if you'll make the meet at Island Dragway you'll likely see it for yourself. From starting it, to back on the road driving, took me a week and a half of after hours and spare time work. In the driveway on ramps and stands.
